Social media and paid advertising in Hull
Hull runs on two quite different kinds of trade. The port, the offshore wind supply chain and the food processors sell to other businesses through formal buying processes. The cafés, shops and trades in the Old Town, around the Fruit Market and out in Hessle and Cottingham sell to people deciding on their phones. Before we plan a single post or advert for a Hull business, we work out which side you are on.
Social & paid ads from £350 a month. About 60 minutes from our studio, with no travel charge.
Social media and paid advertising for Hull businesses
For suppliers in the energy and port chain, social media is part of the evidence a buyer checks before shortlisting you. LinkedIn is the place for it: new certifications, safety records, finished work where the client permits, and news of the team growing. None of that wins a tender on its own, though a silent page can raise questions. Paid ads rarely help with procurement, so we would keep your spend for recruitment and for the services buyers search for directly.
Consumer businesses are a simpler brief. A bar near the Fruit Market or a shop in the Old Town needs Instagram posts that look like the place, and Meta ads aimed at people close enough to come in that evening. Trades based around Sutton Fields, Anlaby or Willerby usually do better with Google Ads for the jobs they want, shown only in the parts of the city and the East Riding they cover. Each area gets its own wording, so an advert seen in Willerby talks about Willerby.

Social & paid ads in Hull: your questions
We bid for offshore wind work through tenders. Is social media any use to us?
Yes, in a supporting role. Procurement teams look you up, and a LinkedIn page showing recent certifications, safety records and the projects you are allowed to mention tells them the company is active and competent. It will never replace the tender itself. We would keep the posts factual and steady, which suits the people reading them.
Should our adverts cover Beverley and Hessle as well as Hull?
If you work there, yes, and each place should get its own advert that names it. We would also check whether you want jobs south of the Humber, because a simple radius around Hull reaches over the bridge into North Lincolnshire. Unless you are happy to cross it for work, we cut that side off.
How much does social & paid ads cost in Hull?
Our social & paid ads starts at £350 a month, and the price is the same wherever you are.
Do you charge extra to travel to Hull?
No. Hull is about 60 minutes from the studio and visits are included in the project price.
